PURPOSE:Ileal pouch-anal anastomosis remains the “gold standard” in surgical treatment of ulcerative colitis and familial adenomatous polyposis. Pouchitis occurs mainly in patients with a background of ulcerative colitis, although the reasons for this are unknown. The aim of this study was tKeywords
